Oh yes, and there's even shopping and a day spa. What more could a girl want? If you're looking for a destination for a girl's weekend, or a longer holiday, there are plenty of reasons to consider this unspoilt paradise. What's more, located within an hour's drive from both the Gold Coast and Brisbane, it's convenient for everyone to get to.

Welcome to Paradise

On Stradbroke Island, you'll discover secluded bays, spectacular white sand beaches, and stunning inland lakes. There are cafes, restaurants, shops and Stradbroke holiday houses suitable for any size group.

Beautiful Beaches

The gentle waters of Moreton Bay rim the western edge of the island, with its secluded mangrove-fringed bays. If you're looking for white sand, head to the northern tip of Point Lookout, and the beaches along the east coast. These surf beaches are some of the best in Queensland, and are blessed with crystal clear water that is perfect for swimming, snorkelling, or diving. Or, you might want to simply relax under a beach umbrella with a great book.

Day Tours and Trips

Ready to get active? Then why not grab the girls and join a tour or class. There is something to suit any mood. How about a painting class at one of the local galleries? You might head to the interior wetlands for a bushwalking or bush tucker tour. You could raise the adrenalin with a 4WD trip, or hire a board and surf down the local sand dunes. Or there's always the option of stepping aboard a boat for a cruise through this gorgeous part of the world.

Food for any Occasion

Stradbroke holiday houses are a great option if you wish to self-cater, and there are convenience/grocery stores in the main townships, plus a butcher and baker at Dunwich. The Island Fruit Barn offers not only fruit and veg, but also the island's best cakes and desserts. When in need of a fun girly dinner, head to the restaurants at Point Lookout or Seashells Café and Bar at Amity.

Shopping Fun

No girl's holiday is complete without a little retail therapy. There are a few shopping options in Dunwich, Amity and Point Lookout, or if you're really looking to fossick, make a date with the Sunday markets. With a wide range of stalls from local artisans and craftspeople, there'll be plenty to browse.
The markets run weekly during summer, and at other times, keep an eye on local shop noticeboards for the next dates. There are also a few art galleries dotted around the island, which are well worth a visit.

Spa Heaven

Every girl needs a little luxury now and again, and there's no better time than a holiday to immerse in blissful rejuvenation. Straddie Day Spa at Point Lookout has a full menu of sumptuous spa treatments. Think hot stone massage, pampering facial, body wrap or foot spa.
